*May 27, 2012 DISNEY DREAM* 5-night Double Dip to Castaway Cay!

[WDW Princess 71]

DH and I joining in on a spontaneous 3 yr anniversary/end of school cruise. We cruised on the Wonder for our honeymoon and can't wait to go back. Any chance we could still slip in on the FE exchange?

Can't wait!

Hi Claire,
Unfortunately, we closed our FE group almost 2 weeks ago. We did give it a few days leeway but by now we have to stick with our cutoff since many people have told me that they've began and some even finished ordering/making/buying their gifts. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but we hope you understand and surely you will have a wonderful cruise no matter what. One thing that I love doing is decorating my door with magnets, which is really fun and anyone can do it.

I'll probably still pass something little out for the fun of it! Once we find out our room number I'll post it and if anyone has extras, feel free to visit our FE!

We didn't get in on the FE either, if you want to do an exchange with us, I would be up for it.

We don't have our room assignment yet. It's just DH and me! I'll post our room number as soon as we get it.

I will add your info to the google spreadsheet so that anyone who has extra gifts who would like to give to you can do so. I got your PM with your details and will add it in the next day or so.

 

[lilouisianagal]

Thanks Nicole! We're normally planners (months ahead, if not years), but DH decided to be spontaneous. Since a cruise is the result--I'm not complaining!

I have been busy sewing for the cruise. Look what I came up with.

Now, how do I wait for the end of May to use it?

Very cool! Where did you find the dcl fabric?

 

[princesskayla]

Very cool! Where did you find the dcl fabric?

I had it custom made for me! I made two dresses for our cruise in Novemeber with the fabric. This was a little leftover. I have just enough left to make another purse like this.

Here is a picture of the dresses I made.

Back

No big sewing projects for me this cruise, just a few dresses and purses for me and some FE gifts. Last cruise, I made matching outfits for each of us for all 7 days. Our next cruise on the Fantasy, I will probably do the same thing. I will start sewing for that when I get back from this cruise. My little way of keeping the excitement.

Now, off to call DCL. I gotta get my resort transfers set. My travel agent is convinced I have to go back to the airport from Beach Club to get to the port. I hate when I know more about Disney than the person making my reservations. I should just be a travel agent myself.


Only 24 days til we see this:

 

[schwabegooftroop]

Can I just say WOW princesskayla!!
Fabulous....

"Sew" talented.

[disnemimi]

Wow princesskayla,
What sewing talent you possess! The dress is awesome and the purse just as adorable. Hope to see you on the cruise toting that purse! (don't leave it unattended, might just disappear!!)

Got our room number: #2535. Can't wait

 

[EricaG]

We're getting so excited! Aren't we 20 days out now? Yay!!

I'm a professor so I'm knee-deep in final exams and papers, but in a few more days I will be knee-deep in Fish Extender gifts and packing (or at least figuring out what I want to pack). I can see the light at the end of the tunnel!

I added your room number to the Google doc.

I agree! I just took and passed (thank God!) my Professional in Human Resources (PHR) exam today after months of intense studying, now I'm relieved we have less than 3 weeks to go and I can put all my focus on packing, planning, and FE gifts! I ordered half of my gift over the weekend and am going shopping this Saturday for the rest, so excited. I love making gifts

uftracy- do you have your GTY room number assigned yet so I can update the Google doc?

Hi Everyone,
Just thought I would share. I called Disney Cruise Line today and got the movies that will be showing during our cruise: Cars 2, The Help, Real Steel, The Muppets, War Horse, John Carter, Chimpanzee, and The Avengers. I'm pretty excited about the Avengers being shown. Hope I can wait to see it on the ship as I hear it is pretty good.
Happy Packing and see you soon!
